October 30, 1974, is a legendary date in Congolese history. On that day, Muhammad Ali faced off against George Foreman in a world heavyweight championship boxing match in Kinshasa. Fifty years on, young boxers continue to draw inspiration from the event. Meanwhile, former Rwandan doctor Eugène Rwamucyo is handed a 27-year jail sentence after being found guilty of complicity in the country's 1994 genocide. Finally, diamond-rich Botswana voted in general elections this Wednesday, with the ruling party vying to extend its 58 years in power.
